HARARE – DYNAMOS finally captured their target, FC Platinum midfielder Brett Amidu in a loan deal on Wednesday.
The Harare club are desperate to finish strong in the campaign in which they languish 24 points adrift of Platinum, who lead.
FC Platinum spokesperson Chido Chizondo said: “His loan deal to Dynamos has been finalised. He should be joining Dynamos any time from now.”
The transfer window opened on July 1 and will close at the end of the month.
Dynamos are also understood to have signed another player from How Mine as coach Lloyd Mutasa tries to strengthen his side.
Amidu, who joined Platinum from Dynamos at the start of 2017, has struggled to hold down a first team shirt since he decided to switch to the Zvishavane-based side.
He now has six months left on his current deal with FC Platinum which follows that he would be a free agent by December 31 when his loan deal runs out.
Dynamos’ bid to re-engage Cameroonian striker Christain Ntouba Epoupa after the two parties fell out over outstanding payments has reportedly collapsed with the club leadership saying it would only pay what they owe the player.
Epoupa called it quits at the start of the season due to frustration as Dynamos reneged on their promise to pay him his dues.
The Cameroonian top scored for the Glamour Boys last term with 12 goals in a season in which they were unfortunate to be beaten to the title by FC Platinum on the very last day of the league programme to finish in second place.
Dynamos have lost eight of the 20 games they have played and have so far dropped seven points from the three games in the second half of the season.
